Entertainer Activity Badge

How to earn your badge

Choose one of the options. Then, as part of a group, complete all tasks to achieve this badge.

Option 1

Write and plan some original entertainment. It could involve a campfire or stage routine involving mime, drama, music, storytelling or conjuring. Alternatively, it could take the form of a presentation featuring sketches, film, slides, tapes, photography or sound recordings.

Rehearse the entertainment and make sure everyone has a job to do. You might need actors, a producer, a stage manager, front of house or a publicity manager.

Present the entertainment to an audience at a school, for your Troop or at a parents’ evening.

Option 2

Take an active part in a Scout show or another production. You’ll need to commit to regular rehearsals.
